The Academy’s Neglected Wizard in the Game

Episode 59 – Believe me

#One

daemon.

Above them is the demonium that governs them.

In terms of meaning, demons and demons are the same thing, but in this worldview, the two have different meanings.

Unlike Daemon, where nothing was revealed other than the information that it was related to the god of death, the devil had quite a few detailed settings.

‘Did you say they were residents of the Demon Realm?’

Like any cliché in fantasy novels, a common setting.

Demons are one of the races that live in the middle world of the demon world and the world divided into the star world.

In the old days, the 72 demon families that the supreme king named Solomon used his hands and feet.

After completing the heavy mission, King Solomon created a land where 72 families could live.

That place has now become a place called the Demon Realm.

It’s a cliché, but it was a setting that arouses interest for those who are new to it.

“We are almost done.”

“I think something is happening inside. The barrier of such a complicated technique.”

“Hey, Princess Invidea.”

The squad leader of the knights spoke cautiously.

Invidea, who was watching the situation with her arms folded, turned her head to look at the person who asked the question.

Although he has excellent skills, he is a squad leader known for being cautious.

I’ve heard time and time again that you have to develop boldness in order to rise to the top.

As if he was uneasy, his eyes trembled and he opened his mouth.

“Wouldn’t it be nice to call support?”

“hmm-.”

As if to say more, Invidea asked with her eyes.

What did the young, intelligent, and careful squad leader want to say?

He knew that his cautiousness did not simply come from timidity.

“Even though they occupied a ruin this size, they didn’t put up a guard. I also investigated on my own, and the church is growing in the northern region.”

“so?”

“I feel dangerous. By any chance, if you’re dragging the time with all your might… … .”

His thoughts made sense.

It is never a bad thing to deliver opinions with precise reasons.

However, it is completely at the commander’s discretion other than accepting it.

Invidea tried to politely decline so as not to offend the squad leader.

Until Manus’s mouth opened.

“If you’ve been thoroughly defended like this, you’ll have to break through even faster.”

“yes?”

“Are reinforcements coming using teleportation magic? It takes half a day to come by foot.”

“… … .”

The squad leader kept his mouth shut.

It’s not that his opinion is bad.

Since Manus knew the truth, he could only accurately judge right from wrong.

Being prudent is good, but hesitating when there is a clearer and more precise path is an idiot.

“Avon.”

“Yes, Gongja.”

“How long until release?”

“Eight minutes and 32 seconds, I think.”

Manus nodded.

This should be enough.

If it’s 8 minutes, I’ll be able to hold on alone.

don’t know what’s going on inside

However, his hypothesis is probably correct.

Having played this game countless times, I already knew all the rules of events in this utopia-like world.

While walking without hesitation, I heard Invidea’s sharp voice.

“So, what are you thinking? Brother?”

“I will go first and stop the tricks. Please come and get me.”

Manus headed down the stairs with a light smile.

What about the people who were working hard in the middle of the day? In the meantime, Manus’ body went into the barrier.

“You-!”

It was also the moment when Invidea’s composure completely collapsed.

Quaang-!

Even though she hit the barrier hard, the magic curtain blocking the two did not budge.

It didn’t matter that she wasn’t like a princess.

“Why can’t I get in!”

“I don’t know either. I touched it lightly, and it worked.”

“That makes sense!”

There was nothing I could say to the angry Invidea.

I just shrug my shoulders and speak calmly.

Suwook-.

His outstretched hand passed through the barrier and touched Invidea’s shoulder.

“Come quickly.”

“Manus! stop! hey-!”

Manus turned around, waved his hand and went down.

Invidea, forgetting her body language, continued to scream to call him up.

Her brother disappeared into the darkness, like so-and-so being sacrificed.

“That’s really, pretending to be cool alone-!”

“Princess, please calm down for now.”

“… … .”

Her pupils narrowed, and her face turned bright red.

Isn’t it Princess Invidea who has a hardened image of being cold and intelligent?

That image was created by herself over a long period of time.

“Big-! sucker, get rid of it quickly. I have to go rescue that stupid little brother.”

“Heh heh, I see.”

Avon nodded with a smile that deepened wrinkles.

Today’s work should be cherished for the rest of one’s life.

If you don’t want to receive that princess’s cold stare for the rest of your life.

The work continued, and the nervousness increased.

The second Confucius entered the limb.

He also said, ‘You must come and get it.’

It’s no wonder that their heads are busy.

“Heo-eok-.”

A weak breath was heard.

Sensing the sound, the princess turned her head away.

There, on her knees, a woman in a black outfit was gasping for breath.

someone who knows

Everyone spots her and raises their hands to stop her raising their guard.

Two eyes tightly closed.

Mana shaking unsteadily.

“Did you say Aden? What happened?”

“I can go in… … There was none.”

She spoke indignantly, chewing out every single word.

it’s a master

He is a master of a level similar to that of a mage who is looking at the 5th class and the 6th class beyond.

She couldn’t do anything like that.

“I said I would keep it.”

“Calm down. you.”

“… … I made a fool of myself. sorry. Lady Gong.”

“I am envious of my brother who has earned your loyalty. Why did I only let my younger brother into that barrier… … .”

Invidea’s sigh deepened.

Aden, the black assassin, stood up.

I couldn’t see the expression covered by the mask, but I could see the bitterness and anger of being separated from my lord.

Invidea looked into Aden’s eyes and was engulfed in two thoughts.

envy.

Envy for having such a henchman.

And one more thing-.

#2

darkness.

I hated it terribly, but for some reason I was familiar with it.

Manus went through a dark and deep place like the jaws of a monster.

A spiral staircase twisted like a coiled snake.

A faint purple light was leaking from its tip.

In this worldview, purple connotes ominousness and wickedness.

‘Cult of Dire. The demon that came out of this place… … I have no knowledge either.’

Originally, getting involved with the Church of Dire started when the traveler started his activities in earnest.

Since it is a perfect original story, you must go through it only with your own judgment and ability.

But why?

The excitement of what the reward was was greater than the fear.

[ כֹּה-מָצָא ]

It was an unknown language.

What is clear is that the ritual is almost complete.

Manus stepped quickly and entered the space that spread from the end of the stairs.

A fishy smell stung my nostrils.

The raw material for the scattered magic circle is blood.

It was also human blood.

“How come they do the same thing every day?”

Gamers are gamers too.

Anything new?

I’m getting tired of seeing such gross things every day.

However, we also know that sometimes familiarity stimulates the human senses.

This grotesque.

Familiar corpse textures and landscapes.

In fact, Manus was feeling disgusted by it.

“Um-? Also, a guest has arrived. Ah, you-.”

“you.”

Manus turned his head at the familiar voice.

And he had a twisted laugh.

It was the laughter of a beast at those who dared invade its nest.

A familiar silhouette with open arms, like a pastor of a pseudo-religion.

I wondered where he was going, but I didn’t know he was hiding in a place like this.

“I am very happy to see you again.”

Manus looked at his mouth and opened it.

At the same time, his mouth was also open.

It wasn’t a miracle or coincidence that the two of them said the same thing.

“Because I could kill you here.”

“Because I could kill you here.”

The line brought joy to Manus and embarrassment to the man.

Manus let out mana from his hands while smiling.

fall out-.

People carry bad memories for a long time.

“Why are you embarrassed? wayfarer. No.”

“… … .”

woo woo woo-.

The whole space started to tremble.

Yes, Manus already knew.

The ceremony ended with the last strange word he heard.

I needed a target to vent my anger on.

In addition, it was intended to clearly engrave the fear of Caesar.

I’m on top of your head

“Platus gospel. What an abominable name.”

“Uh, uh uh uh-.”

“If you had entered the lion’s den, of course you would have thought about being eaten.”

Qurrr!

A pure white lightning bolt flew to Platus Gospel, a traveler.

A lightning bolt that deflects through the transparent barrier.

It was an oversensitive reaction to simple magic.

A traveler who uses 3 classes of defense magic that does not match the level.

Manus smiled and said.

“My mercy will give you one last chance. Because you are still worth using.”

“under… … hahahaha!”

Platus laughed in anger.

The corners of his mouth twisted and his eyes tensed, tickling Manus’ heart.

Was it this much fun to poison someone?

As if he had discovered a new side of himself that he did not know, his lips went up.

Coo-goo-goo-.

The ruins were shaken, and the traveler’s face was perplexed.

‘The author must die at the hands of Cale.’

I wanted to kill him right now, but he’s essential for the growth of my colleagues.

It was a sacrifice that was not yet young, so I decided to release it.

“Or I’ll kill you here.”

gurrr

A lightning strike that is different from the magic that was fired as a greeting.

Platus gritted his teeth and opened the space.

His specialty is teleportation magic.

“See you next time. You’ll regret letting me go now. Whoop-.”

Manus had already turned his gaze away from him.

What he looked at was the magic circle behind Platus.

He began to analyze the transfer magic circle that moved him to another place at once.

‘Is that a unique ability?’

Like someone else’s passive, it seems to be an ability that cannot be acquired through knowledge.

If you learn it when you can afford it, you can use it forever.

You don’t need to learn only offensive skills.

“and… … .”

Qurrr-!

Foundation collapsed.

The ritual was completed, and all the uncleanness in it was gone.

The spot that had been covered in blood was as clean as if someone had cleaned it.

“Here you are.”

[Uh uh uh uh uh-!]

face of a giant bird.

A much bigger body than an ogre.

Black mana encroached on the surroundings.

‘Is it Orias?’

A more powerful being than most demons in the tower appeared.

Manus took oil and holy water from his bosom.

he was bold

No one could stop Caesar.
